If you ever are down there, head to the Dutch side of the island and you can meet him. You can also get these storyboards they make with sketches from the movies, pieces from the scripts and ideas for the scences. Thing is they cost from $120 to $220 for the storyboards, depending on which ones you get. Each one is unique though and they never make another storyboard the same as another. I'll post what mine looks like a little later, and while your there you can see a Empire Strikes Back poster signed by the actors hanging on the wall, and (I THINK) the puppet Yoda cover...yeah, it was a cover over a metallic puppet the could blink and stuff. Anyway, the store is called That Yoda Guy. I think there are two of them. Anyway, it was awesome, so I suggest you check it out if you ever get the chance.
